TCL U55S7906 operation manual

Important information

Safety

Ensure that your domestic mains supply voltage

matches the voltage indicated on the identication

sticker located at the back of your set. Where the
mains plug or an appliance coupler is used as
disconnect device, it shall remain readily operable.
On certain models, the light indicator is located at the
side of the TV set. The absence of a light indication
at the front does not mean that the TV set is fully
disconnected from the mains. To disconnect the TV
set completely, the mains plug must be pulled out.
The TV set’s components are sensitive to heat. The

maximum ambient temperature should not exceed
35º Celsius. Do not cover the vents at the back or

sides of the TV set. Leave sufcient space around

it to allow adequate ventilation. Install the appliance

away from any source of heat (replace, etc.) or
appliances creating strong magnetic or electric elds.

Moisture in rooms where the set is installed should
not exceed 80% humidity. Moving the set from a cold
place to a warm one can cause condensation on the

screen (and on some components inside the TV set).

Let the condensation evaporate before switching the
TV set on again.

WARNINGS

This appliance is intended for domestic household
use only and should not be used for any other
application, such as for non-domestic use or in a
commercial environment.

If the external exible cable or cord of this product is

damaged, it shall be replaced by the manufacturer or

his service agent or a similar qualied person in order

to avoid a hazard.
Leave more than 10cm clearance around the
television to allow adequate ventilation. The
ventilation should not be impeded by covering the
ventilation openings with items, such as newspapers,
table-cloths, curtains, etc.
The apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or

splashing and no objects lled with liquids, such as

vases shall be placed on the apparatus.
Batteries shall not be exposed to excessive heat such

as sunshine, re or the like.

An apparatus with CLASS I construction shall be
connected to a MAINS socket outlet with a protective
earthing connection.

To prevent the spread of re, keep candles or
other open ames away from this product at all

times.

WARNING: To prevent injury, this apparatus must be

securely attached to the oor/wall in accordance with

the installation instructions.
CAUTION: Connect headphones with the volume
set low and increase if required. Prolonged listening
through headphones at high volume settings can
result in hearing damage.

Eye Fatigue

When using this product as a computer monitor,
health and safety experts recommend short frequent
breaks rather than occasional longer breaks. For
example a 5-10 minute break after an hour of
continuous screen work is considered to be better
than a 15 minute break every 2 hours.
Do not use the monitor against a bright background or
where sunlight or other bright light sources will shine
directly onto the screen.
The

or POWER/ button on the TV set or the
button on the remote control can be used to switch it
on and put it into standby mode. If you are not going
to be watching the TV for a lengthy period of time,
switch it off completely by removing the plug from the
mains power socket.
During thunderstorms, we recommend that you
disconnect the TV set from the mains and aerial so
that it is not affected by electrical or electromagnetic
surges that could damage it. For this reason, keep
the mains and aerial sockets accessible so they can
be disconnected, if necessary.
Unplug the TV set immediately if you notice it giving
off a smell of burning or smoke. You must never,
under any circumstances, open the TV set yourself,
as you run the risk of an electric shock in doing so.

TV screen

The TV screen used in this product is made of glass.
Therefore, it can break when the product is dropped
or impacted upon by other objects.
The TV screen is a very high technology product,

giving you nely detailed pictures. Occasionally, a few
nonactive pixels may appear on the screen as a xed

point of blue, green or red. This does not affect the
performance of your product.

Care

Use a glass-cleaning product to clean the screen and
a soft cloth and mild detergent to clean the rest of the
set.
Important: Using strong detergents, alcohol-based
and abrasive products may damage the screen.
Dust the vents at the back and sides regularly. Using
solvents, abrasive or alcohol-based products could
damage the TV set. If an object or liquid enters the
appliance, unplug it immediately and have it checked
by an authorized engineer. Never open the appliance
yourself since this may put you at risk or damage the
appliance.

Hanging the TV set on the wall
Warning: This operation requires two people.

To ensure a safe installation, observe the following
safety notes:

• Check that the wall can support the weight of the TV

set and wall mount assembly.

• Follow the mounting instructions provided with the

wall mount. For certain models, make sure to screw

English

Imp

ortant information

the hexagonal VESA wall mounting screw bosses

(and screws) provided with the set into the nuts for

the wall mount at the back of your set before your
wall mounting.

• The TV set must be installed on a vertical wall.

• Make sure to use only screws suitable for the

material of the wall.

• Make sure that the TV set cables are placed so that

there is no danger of tripping over them.
All other safety instructions about our TV sets are also
applicable here.

Placing the TV on a table and other surfaces

Before setting up your television set, make sure that
the surface you want to put the set on can support its
weight.
Do not place the set on an unstable surface (e.g.

moving shelf, very edge of a unit) and make sure that

the front of the television set does not overhang the
surface it is standing on.
To avoid TV from falling please fasten TV to the
wall by using necessary screws (in Vesa wall mount

holes), clamps, anchors to be bought separately.

Install TV near to the wall to avoid falling backwards.

existing codes.

Troubleshooting

Please check the following list before requesting
service.

There is no picture or sound.

• Make sure the power cord is properly inserted in the

power outlet.

• Make sure the source type is set correctly.

• Make sure the antenna is properly connected.

• Make sure the volume is not set to minimum or the

sound is not set to mute.

• Make sure the headphones are not connected.

• The TV may be receiving a signal other than from

TV broadcasting stations.

Picture is not clear.

• Make sure the antenna cable is properly connected.

• Consider whether your TV signal is being properly

received.

• Poor picture quality can occur due to a VHS

camera, camcorder, or other peripheral being
connected at the same time. Switch off one of the
other peripherals.

• The ‘ghost’ or double image may be caused by

obstruction to the antenna due to high-rise buildings
or hills. Using a highly directional antenna may
improve the picture quality.

• The horizontal dotted lines shown on the pictures

may be caused by electrical interference, e.g., hair
dryer, nearby neon lights, etc. Turn off or remove
these.

Picture is too dark, too light or tinted.

• Check the colour adjustment.

• Check the brightness setting.

• Check the sharpness function.

Remote control does not work.

• Check the batteries of the remote control.

• Make sure the remote sensor window on the TV

front is not under strong uorescent lighting.

• Try to clean the remote sensor window on the TV

front with a soft cloth.

If the above suggestions do not solve your technical
issue, please refer to the warranty card for service
information.
